-LRB- CNN -RRB- -- Three-time Formula One world champion Sebastian Vettel has extended his deal with Red Bull through to the end of the 2015 season .

The German is on course for a fourth straight drivers ' championship title after victory at the Canadian Grand Prix on Sunday saw him extend his lead at the top of the standings to 36 points .

Vettel has reigned supreme over the sport since landing his first title in 2010 and has now added an extra 12 months onto his current deal .

The 25-year-old had been linked with rival marques such as Ferrari and Mercedes but has put an end to the speculation by signing a new contract .

`` Infiniti Red Bull Racing is happy to confirm that World Champion Sebastian Vettel has extended his multi-year contract with the team until the end of 2015 , '' a Red Bull statement read .

`` A previous member of the Red Bull Junior squad , Sebastian first drove for Red Bull Racing in 2009 .

`` During his Formula One career , the 25-year-old has achieved 29 wins , 51 podiums and 39 pole positions .

`` He is the current Formula One World Champion and also a triple World Champion , having retained the title since he first won it in 2010 . ''

Vettel and Red Bull have dominated the elite division of motorsport since the landmark campaign in 2010 when Vettel won the drivers ' title and his team the constructors ' championship .

The following year Vettel secured a record points total of 392 , winning 11 of the 17 races that year .

In 2012 Vettel won by a much closer margin -- just three points separated him and Ferrari 's Spanish driver Fernando Alonso .

Victory meant he became the youngest ever triple world champion at 25 , and matched the hat-trick of titles achieved by Juan Manuel Fangio and Michael Schumacher .

Vettel has won three out of seven races this season and after leading from start to finish in Canada on Sunday he extended his lead over Alonso to 36 points .
